wear loose fitting clothing, short pants, sandals or similar
lightweight footwear, jewelry of any kind, or go barefoot.
Use of footwear and gloves with electrical protection is

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
Avoid Dangerous Environments – Don’t expose appliance
to rain or wet conditions. Water entering an appliance will
increase the risk of electric shock.
Use Right Appliance – Do not use appliance for any job
except that for which it is intended. Use the correct tool
for your application.
Don’t Force Appliance – It will do the job better and with
less likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate for which it
was designed.
Do not overreach – Keep firm footing and balance. Over-
reaching can result in loss of balance.
Avoid accidental starting – Be sure switch trigger is in
the locked or off position before inserting battery pack.
Carrying tools with your finger on the switch trigger or
inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on
invites accidents.
Do not use tool if switch trigger does not turn it on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch trigger
is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect power head – Disconnect battery pack from
the appliance before storing, servicing, or changing ac-
cessories such as cutting line. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Use only identical manufacturer’s replacement parts and
accessories. Use of any other parts may create a hazard
or cause product damage.
Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufac-
turer’s recommended attachments.
Maintain appliance with care – Replace string head if
cracked, chipped, or damaged in any way. Be sure the
string head is properly installed and securely fastened.
Failure to do so can cause serious injury. Follow instruc-
tions for lubrication and changing accessories. Inspect
charger cord periodically and, if damaged, have it re-
placed. Keep power head handles dry, clean, and free
from grease and oil.
Check Damaged Parts – Before further use of the appli-
ance, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly
and perform its function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mount-
ing and any other condition that may effect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service center un-
less indicated elsewhere in this manual.
Keep hands and feet away from cutting area.
Make sure all guards, straps, deflectors and handles are
properly and securely attached.
Use only the manufacturer’s replacement string in the
cutting head when using a string trimmer attachment.
